  • Yeti control chains problem up to which year of construction?

    Hi together, I’m currently looking for a used Skoda Yeti and I came across an article at the ADAC (https://www.adac.de/…/) during my research, which says that the Yeti had problems with a long chain until 2015. In various forums, however, it is said that these control chains should be solved already from 2013. Does any of you happen to know a little more about it? From what year of construction is “safe” what these control chains are Problem? Had looked at a Skoda Yeti built in 2013, for example, yesterday, had directly “rattled” when starting (cold start). Thank you for your help in advance!!

  • Problems with rust inside on doors ?

    Hello, last week I bought a used Yeti Bj 7/2010 with 19500 km, I am very satisfied with the driving behaviour and consumption. Today my neighbour arrived and delivered me the ordered fuel oil, and told, that another customer with his Yeti was also Bj. 2010 to the service in the workshop and this then would have dismantled the cladding of the doors to look for possible rust spots, and one noticed on all 4 doors rust and now the doors should be renewed, It is said that you would have problems with any batch. Has anyone heard of this yet ? Should I perhaps address the Skoda dealer where I bought the vehicle ? Guarantee I still have on the vehicle , I even extended the factory warranty to two years . Greeting to all Yeti fans opellepo

  • Skoda Yeti recommendation for purchase?

    Hello – maybe one of you can help me. My father would like to buy a Skoda Yeti (2.0 tdi with 4×4 and 110 hp) The workshop of his trust (free) advised against it (of all current VW group cars). Especially the 140hp diesel should be unreliable and also the 110hp variant should have its problems. Can anyone confirm this the current cars from the VW group should not be particularly reliable? Does someone have a Yeti and can do this better? The one from the workshop said that the oil pump often causes problems. Would I be happy about many helpful answers and would like to thank you in advance:-) MFG Michael

  • Criteria Engine?

    Hello I’m driving a Skoda Roomster until now – and somehow it did to me Skoda. 🙂 Now with child and cone it should be a Skoda Yeti. With timing belts (from 2015?) but which engine is recommended and which one not? I am really layman and hope for your expert opinion. Thank you in advance.. Greetings Andreas

  • New navigation device from November 2014

    YETI Approval 9.12.2014. Dot New instrument cluster RADIO-NAVI. No single CD can be played anymore, Tra la la only via SD card or USB stick. Especially annoying, however, when navigation is no transfer into the driver’s field of view to the MAXIDot, between the round instruments.No indication from the dealer , as SKODA is not reasonably informed when concluding a contract.A dealer request at SKODA ,why no navigation data is possible anymore to the MaxiDot, came the lapidary answer: “Stand der Serie”.! is a step backwards of the development. With some manufacturers is already transferred to the windshield – here one is in the Sleeping Beauty SCHLAF. An update is not intended for the time being!! The dealer is – like me – very surprised about this answer.Deliverys (stand vehicles at the dealer) until Oct.2014 are equipped with the previous NAVI and thus also with a transfer into the field of view of the driving. The dealer recommended me a request at SKODA Germany , also here only the reference to the new “STANDART”. What achievement. I had previously driven a Yeti Bj 2012, 1,2l,DSG with 6 TSD.km on the UHR, bought in August 2014 and was convinced by this car.Therefore, a new purchase -2.0l,140hp,DSG,4×4 with a lot of drumherum,zB.KESSI,Alarmanl.,heizb.Frontsch.usw.,unfortunately no heater. Furthermore, the electronics played already several times crazy:mirrors only foldable after much fuss from the service, lock on the door handle (KESSI) only with key(radio) feasible. To all the dear words :::wait. On 19.12.2014 again Wekstatt visit,Computer Auslese–ha-ha. What comes next??!! BIN CIVILLY GENERVT. The YETICRUISER –

  • Brake disc high rust

    Hello, with my Yeti 2.0/110 4×4 the rear brake disc re. in the outer area is only rust, in the middle 2 bright wrinkles and in the inside more or less brightly ground. i.e. the braking force lies only in the inner area. I was at the dealer because I wanted to claim this after 9 months or 7′ km as a deficiency. This one said one must drive more powerfully or brake, not so careful. Warranty would be only 6 months. So well. I did not mount any seats at the back and can I then removed the brake pliers last week, removed the blocks in the mounted condition with 60th grinding paper wrapped around a file, looked whether foreign bodies or locks are present, assembled, no change. The question now is why only the brake disc shows hi. re this behavior on the inside, on the inside, on the inside, mainly alone, then loaded weights of approx. 120 kg behind and went on a brake tour, hand and foot brake, no significant change on the disc. On the other hand it was rather mixed, rust, blank, rust, blank Riefen. If it is on the pressure regulator, the one or the other looks like an axle, can one manipulate this time so that the rear axle is stronger? The hand brake should have the same effect on both sides. Had slowed it down to the stand several times from 120 kmh. Greeting A.

  • Which Yeti

    Find a replacement for my Jeep Grand Cherokee, as I no longer need the large trailer load (3500 kg) for my boat. I thought about a Yeti, driving about 10-15000 KM a year in the city-land traffic. From time to time I have my two-axle trailer to pull, however, because the 2000 Kg trailer load. (mostly) It should be an automatic circuit. What motorization would be the right one?

  • Yeti – Dynamic service interval

    Hello! Is it true that you get the service interval proposed by the Yeti depending on driving (max. 30000 kilometers, max. 2 years) and you have to do this in order not to lose the warranty? I’d rather ask you, because the young boys in the car business seem nice and friendly, but not always omniscient. What does the interval depend on? Hopefully the computer doesn’t just count the number of engine starts (possibly also at the railway barrier)?

  • Chip tuning on the Yeti 1.4/122PS

    I’ve been looking at the Yeti for a long time. However, I’d like to have more than 122 hp. I guess it’s only available with four-wheel drive so far. I don’t need it. Can anyone say if a moderate chip tuning (on 152 hp) with the Yeti 1.4/122 hp is compatible with all the units of this model or does someone even have experience with chip tuning with this engine?

  • Play music videos?!

    Moinsen love Kamiq drivers, I have been the proud owner of a Kamiq “MonteCarlo” 1.5 DSG with various equipment such as Infotainment Amundsen. ???? But I haven’t found one thing yet, namely the possibility to play music videos. With my last vehicle, VW Passat Bj 08 also with very good equipment, it was possible to play music videos via CD/DVD at least in the stand. Now we are 12 years on! It should be possible to play music videos p he USB/SD card or even by smartphone like e.g. by “Car Play”. Or not? So I haven’t found anything in this direction yet …?? You about ??
